PASOLINK Network Management System (Java version)

The PASOLINK Network Management System Java version (PNMSj) provides easy-to-use monitoring, control, configuration and management of PASOLINK family radio networks. You can use PNMSj to do the following: Monitor PASOLINK family radio equipment status. Control and configure PASOLINK family radio equipment. Collect Link Performance data. Update PASOLINK family radio network configuration data.

Features and Benefit


Any Platform Free from OS limitations, PNMSj runs on either Windows or UNIX. PNMSj is based on SNMP Manager/Agent Technology. Any Client PNMSj Clients are able to monitor and control NEs using most Web browsers (IE, etc). Remote NEs can be accessible using either PPP serial interface or LAN interface.

System Overview
The PASOLINK Network Management System (Java version) is comprised of three elements, a high performance computer with peripheral equipment, a software package called PASOLINK Network Management System Java version (PNMSj) and PASOLINK Management Card (PM Card) or CTRL Module to be equipped in the PASOLINK or PASOLINK+ and PASOLINK Mx equipment respectively. The PNMSj is located at a central or a regional operation center and enables network operators to monitor and control the PASOLINK family network elements (NEs) Web browsers. Alternatively, a laptop computer with simplified software package, called PASOLINK Network Management Terminal - Java version (PNMTj) is available for maintenance purpose at local site. The PASOLINK family NE at the central site interfaces with the PNMSj through one of the following interfaces. PASOLINK: 10BASE-T (LAN) or V.11/RS-232C 19.2/9.6 kbps, Async (through Router) PASOLINK+/PASOLINK Mx: 10BASE-T (LAN) or V.11 19.2/9.6 kbps, Async (through Router)

The communication to the remote PASOLINK family NE is established through one of the digital service channels in the network.

PNMSj Management Functions


PNMSj main window
The PNMS GUI is based on standard architecture containing standard menu and functions. This makes navigating the PNMS window straightforward. The PNMSj main screen is composed of five main sections. These are: Hierarchy View: Composed of two views Group View and Connection View. Map View: It shows the correlated location of the network map on a graphical background. List View: It shows a network element list belongs to the group that selects it on Group View. Alarm Information View: It shows a summary of current active alarms.

Event Log View: It shows the log of every event in the network. Total Alarm The total count of current active alarms (Not Ack and Total) in each category is shown at the top of the main window.

Link Summary window


There are five ways to display the Link Summary of a specific NE. 1. From Group Map and Connection Map (Click the target NE ( ) icon on the map to display its Link Summary window.) 2. From Group Map and Connection Map (Right click the NE to display the context menu.) 3. From List View 4. From Alarm Information View 5. From Search result

Active Alarm window
The Active Alarm function supports monitoring of active alarms on all connected network elements. Alarms that have been cleared in the NE will be removed on the Active Alarm window and logged in the Alarm History window. Ack: The user can acknowledge any of the alarm items by checking the Ack box opposite the alarm item. A check mark indicates whether the alarm item has been acknowledged. Date/Time: The date and time that the alarm occurred. Network Element: Indicates the NE name where the alarm occurred. Item: Indicates the name of the alarm.

Severity: Indicates the severity to the alarm. The background color of each line is also indicates the color of the severity.

NE List
List View: The List View shows the list of network elements belonging to the group selected in the Group View. Contents are as follows. (It is possible to sort it by each column.) NE Icon: Current status of each NE which shows the highest severity color. Name: Network Element name Equipment Type: Network Element Type Opposite Network Element: Network Element name of radio opposite the given NE.

MTL-PL-022

Network Configurations
The PNMSj supports various network configurations, from a simple trunk-line network structure to complex multi-branch networks. The number of manageable Network Elements (NEs) per one PNMSj is up to 10,000*.
*The PNMS PC, workstation or server specification must be considered to provide recommended performance.

Parallel PNMS configuration

Two PNMSj can monitor and control PASOLINK network (up to 5,000 NEs) simultaneously and independently to provide fault redundancy function. They are connected through Router, as shown in the figure to the right. This configuration is called Parallel PNMSj. Parallel" means that status change (ex. alarm and event occurrence) of each NE is recognized in both PNMS. Even if one PNMSj is down, the other PNMSj can monitor and control NEs in the network. (The logging data, performance monitor data and network configuration data are not synchronized between the PNMSj-1 and PNMSj-2.)

Central PNMSj

Central and Regional PNMSj can be configured as shown in the figure to the right. Regional PNMSj monitors and controls PASOLINKs (up to 10,000 NEs) in its region. Central PNMS monitors and controls all PASOLINKs (up to 10,000 NEs) in all regions (up to 50 regions). It is considered an alternative configuration of Parallel PNMSj . Each NE is monitored and controlled by both Central and Regional PNMSj. It means that even if Central PNMSj is down, each Regional PNMSj can monitor and control NEs in its monitored and controlled region. In a similar way, if a regional PNMS is down, the central PNMSj can monitor and control NEs under the region where the regional PNMSj is down.
(The logging data, performance monitor data and network configuration data are not synchronized between the central PNMSj and Regional PNMSj. Central PNMSj has some restriction of the function.)

Higher-level Management Interface

In order to make NEC's PASOLINK family equipment an integral part of a higher-level management system, an optional SNMP interface to higher-level management system is provided with the PNMSj. The interface is based on SNMPv1 and resides on the same PC as the PNMSj. The detailed control and data gathering are performed by the PNMSj. The summarized alarm traps (Summary SNMP trap such as Group of NE summary trap or NE summary trap) are sent to higher-level management system through this interface. As higher-level management system receives summary traps from PNMSj, the operator needs to access the PNMSj for the detail. In addition, as each PASOLINK family NE also has SNMP interface in itself, each PASOLINK family NE is directly accessible from higher-level management system if required. The interface to the higher-level management is UDP/IP with Ethernet interface. 10/100BASE-T is assumed for LAN interface.
